Sweet
Got a chance to go paragliding in Spain once. We set off, and caused a 20+ flock of vultures to fly off from their roosts on the cliffside...below us.
Flying above vultures feels like an oddly philosophical thing...

Wasn't he the blue one?
Or was he the green one with one eye?

Brilliant
I had one of the most memorable experiences of my life a few years back sneaking up behind buzzards under a cloud street in a K21.
Shame the flying scared me so much that I quit ;)
